Trophic dynamic aspect of ecology by Raymond Lindeman provided a novel conceptual model for studying energy flow in aquatic ecosystems. Lindeman's Ecology manuscript is now considered foundational work in the histories of ecology and limnology and seminal work in ecosystem ecology. This work was one of the first papers to implement Arthur Tansley's newly proposed ecosystem concept in a quantitative manner and was groundbreaking in several ways. The work's most enduring contribution is that it provided a common currency (organic matter or energy flow) for studying interactions among trophic levels and for comparing disparate aquatic ecosystems,thus establishing a theoretical orientation in ecology. Today,Lindeman's model is still instrumental in ecological research.
